Reserpine/hydrochlorothiazide is a combination medication used to lower blood pressure. It's no longer available in the United States because it was discontinued.
Reserpine/hydrochlorothiazide is made up of two medications that lower your blood pressure. Reserpine is a Rauwolfia alkaloid that works by lowering the levels of certain chemicals in your body that can raise your blood pressure. Hydrochlorothiazide (Microzide) (HCTZ) is a thiazide diuretic (water pill) that works in the kidneys to remove extra water, which lowers blood pressure and gets rid of swelling.

But hydrochlorothiazide (Microzide) is available as a single-ingredient medication and in combination with other blood pressure medications. There are also other available medications commonly used today for the treatment of high blood pressure.
